In Barossa’s high country, Eden Valley is one of Australia’s top cool-climate wine regions. Its pockets of hidden vineyards are surrounded by hills and ancient red gums. Native wildlife, boutique wineries, and food and wine events add to the list of reasons to visit. 

Eden Valley is home to a passionate wine community of fifth- and sixth-generation growers and influential winemakers who never settle for second best. The wines here are some of Australia’s best and brightest.

Set up in the hills, Eden Valley has a cool climate with lower temperatures than the Barossa Valley next door. The vineyards at higher elevations are much cooler than those lower down. 

Eden Valley is in South Australia’s Barossa Ranges, a little over an hour’s drive north-east of Adelaide. It neighbours Barossa Valley and together they make up the Barossa Zone.
